DanceStrong! Workout DVD: A Complete Workout Program combining the best of Dance and Fitness. Get Yours Now>
Stainless Steel Water Bottle: These bottles are all the rage lately. They are environmentally conscious and help save money for those who often buy bottled water.
Pedometer: I have a pedometer and I love using it to track my movement in a given day. I find it motivating and it provides an opportunity for self-challenge. There is a movement that believes we should all be doing 10,000 steps a day. What a great idea! You can get this at any sporting goods store, I picked up mine at Sports Authority.
Yoga Straps: Not just for yoga! Yoga mats are a great tool to facilitate stretching and gentle flexibility, right at home!
Create a Rockin' Playlist: Create a playlist of some of his/her favorite tunes. Download each song separately which is usually .99 cents each on itunes. Put them in an order you like, and burn a dvd.
Playlist Creation Tip: Try starting the playlist with two tunes that are a little slower for a warm up. Then gradually increase with the more upbeat tunes, add one or two slower songs at the end for cool down… and, you're all set!
Yoga Matt: A great way to inspire at home stretching or grab and go to a class is a nice “cooshy” yoga matt. You could always add in the carry case. It has more value then you might think.
Active Wear: Believe it or not the way someone feels about the way they look can often be a deterrent that keeps people from working out. A new workout outfit can be a great motivator.
